"Now of course, nobody would even consider going to a U.K. wedding without some kind of a head covering, whether it's a large brimmed hat or the new more popular little fascinators."
Nineteen hundred people are attending the Royal Wedding. About half will be women in hats? What a lot of choices for the most delicious hat. Say nine hundred, still a lot of hats. That is four hundred more than Bartholemew Cubbins of the Five Hundred Hats.
I am feeling the hat energy this year, there is a less resistance to hats. They are getting a lot of attention and the art of millinery has been reborn. For a "Fascinator", there are lots of charming examples for sale on Etsy. I have been exploring hats with bigger brims. Nothing like wearing a big hat to an occasion, you are under the hat. Delicious.
When I think of Rainbow Swiss Chard, I think delicious. Never bitter, so good for you, grows like a weed, add it to all meatballs, spaghetti sauce, chicken soups, beans, etc. My favorite cooking method is a sauté in a small dutch oven.
Rainbow Chard
serves 2-3 people
2 big bunches rainbow chard, washed, greens stripped from stems with a knife and chopped. (Save chard stems for a gratin)
3 tbs. olive oil
2 tbs. butter
salt
1/4 cup heavy cream
Heat the olive oil and butter and start to layer in the chard. Stir as it wilts, cover and add more chard as it cooks down. When the chard is all wilted and cooked, add the cream and cook until thickened.
Serve over rice. Add cooked chicken at the end for a heartier meal.
Big Hat, Rainbow Chard, both delicious.
